House of the Dragon left his position when his contract lapsed and was not renewed, according to Deadline, executive producer Jocelyn Diaz of the television series.

The departure happens after executive producer Miguel Sapochnik left after taking over as showrunner for season one.

The media outlet also stated that Sara Hess and Diaz will continue to serve as executive producers for Season 2 together with Vince Gerardis after Sapochnik’s departure as co-showrunner.

However, Ron Schmidt, who served as an executive producer on the first season of the show in addition to Diaz, discreetly left the project a while back.

The programme, which is inspired on George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood, tells the tale of competition within House Targaryen and is set 172 years before the events of Game of Thrones.

In a recent episode of House of the Dragon, Milly Alcock and Emily Carey were swapped out for Emma D’Arcy and Olivia Cooke, who played Alicent Hightower Princess Rhaenyra and Alicent Hightower Princess Rhaenyra, respectively.
